Halloween Celebration at 1 Utama

Social Media Is Not That Scary

Earlier today, i decided to check out the Halloween Celebration happening at 1 Utama, and boy they had tons of things to do! This happens to be 1 Utama's first social media event to actually provide more exciting events for shoppers to enjoy.

This is happening from the 30th of October until the 1st of November 2015 at the Ground Floor Promenade, just right in front of TGIF this weekend. So if you happen to be around, be sure to check them out to win some exciting goodies!

Spooky Skeleton

What caught my attention was their tagline which said "Social media isnt that scary" where there feature different platforms of social media looking epic in a Halloween themed design. After a second glance at the social media icons, it does make the whole event look and feel like the season of fear. Boo! Good job 1 Utama!

You gotta be with me that their deco is the BOMB!

Never really liked spider webs, even if theyre fake.

Mr Spider wants to join you for tea.

But i have to say that they had an EPIC living room, really attracted all the attention, complete with life sized skeletons, cobwebby bookcases, fireplace, and eerie decorations for shoppers to take photos and share it online. Even i managed to take a photo with the set too! IT LOOKS AMAZING! I mean, not to expect much, but if 1 Utama ever happens to have a haunted house one day, with all the sets looking similar to this, it would be the highlight of any Halloween day/night.

The Friendly Dead Mascots of the day.

There were a pair of creepy friendly mascot characters walking around to embrace and get shoppers to feel the Halloween spirit! Despite looking very ghostly, even little kids were not afraid to snap pictures with these mascots, cause they were ever ready to just meet more people this halloween.

Now the fun part! Did you know that you can redeem gifts by just being there? And no, no spending necessary, this time they uniquely use social media as Halloween currency to make redemptions more exciting. Woohoo! There are three social media stations which are available at the event area, where each social platform gives you different rewards.

Instagram Photobooth Area

Get your photos printed out instantly!

Theres an Instagram Station, where you can take selfies with friends or family at the spooky photobooth and all you need to do is share it our on your instagram, and hashtag #1Utama to receive a complimentary ghostly 4R photo print!

Got myself some fresh cotton candy and popcorn. Yums

Next would be their Facebook station which is a favourite for the kids, cause by liking 1Utama's official facebook page, you get to redeem yourself sinful treats like free popcorn and cotton candy. Managed to get my hands on them, and it felt oh so Sinful!

Last station would be the Twitter & Youtube station where you get to spin the wheel of Horror and win prizes! All you need to do is to follow them on twitter or youtube, and you instantly get to bring yourself some devilish freebie depending on your luck. Hehe.

Kids enjoying their Keychain Workshop

Not forgetting the kids, 1Utama has decided to give them some opportunities to enjoy the season too! But in a less scary version, by giving them a DIY Halloween Keychain Workshop and a Decorate Spooky Cupcake Workshop. So for today, i managed to check out the workshop, and the kids looks like they had tons of fun making pumpkin and macaron monster keychains by using air dry clay. The Decorate Spooky Cupcake workshop on the other hand will be happening tomorrow, so be sure to register yourself early tomorrow for your kids, as this is only complimentary for kids aged 5-12 years old and limited to the first 20 pax.
